The field of cosmetic and aesthetic services has come a very long way so much so that the city of Singapore has become recognised as a regional hub for the finest, safest and most advanced aesthetic treatments. Among the vast number of aesthetic centres, The Sloane Clinic, a medical aesthetic clinic which started operations in 2003, has emerged as one of the city’s premiere aesthetic centres with the technology, staff and expertise necessary for delivering the fullest range of the most up-to-date non-invasive cosmetic treatments. A medical clinic that addresses the skin, face and body concerns, The Sloane Clinic stays at the forefront of new technologies using non-invasive cosmetic dermatological techniques and the latest FDA-approved lasers to help their customers improve their appearance.
When Dr Low Chai Ling and Dr Lee Cheng San teamed up to start The Sloane Clinic five years ago, their goal was to deliver the very best in customised treatments, quality and service vis-à-vis the customers’ needs. Their philosophy involves putting people before profit. Whether the problem is adult acne, wrinkles, or slimming, both Dr Low and Dr Lee take part in periodic training programmes to advance their skills so as to offer only the best non-invasive cosmetic procedures for their patients. They encourage their customers to “throw away their personal notions of beauty and ageing. If you think you know how a 30- year-old should look or how a 50-year-old should age,” they say, “Think again… “
Innovation in aesthetics also continues to be a primary focus. For instance, The Sloane Clinic pioneered the use of the Fraxel Laser, a technology that transforms and rejuvenates skin, wholly minimising problems like scars, enlarged pores, pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles. The doctors there were also the first to introduce the PPx PhotoPneumatic technology, which addresses and manages adult acne, as well as the Mixto Micro Resurfacing Treatment. The doctors at The Sloane Clinic don’t offer invasive procedures like liposuction or cosmetic surgery. Their concept of perfecting appearance involves the use of non-invasive treatment methods as well as consistent use of technologically advanced skin care innovations. In fact The Sloane Clinic brought to Singapore the Epicuren range as well as the very popular Skin Inc range of cosmeceuticals.
Both doctors believe that wellness and beauty are integrated entities which is why The Sloane Clinic has a mandate to inspire and educate people towards that. Aesthetic treatments are not just short-term fixes for physical issues but paths to wellness and beauty, inside and out. Dr Low’s specialty is in lasers and cosmetic formulation. But as the author of In Full Bloom, a book on looking good before, during and after pregnancy, Dr Low has much to offer beyond medical aesthetics. Like Dr Low, Dr Lee is committed to training other doctors in aesthetic disciplines. Both are also certified as International Master Trainers for Restylane treatments. Clearly the team behind The Sloane Clinic is not just about superficial aesthetics, as they volunteer their time for worthy causes as well as provide medical aesthetic treatments pro bono to those with low income who are debilitatingly disfigured.
Those seeking to enhance and improve their appearance should look no further than The Sloane Clinic, which prioritises excellence and service. As their very own doctors attest, “You are only as old as you think you are, or as plain as you let yourself be. This is the place to go to free yourself from your limits of beauty.”
